Shout-Out to the Ladies of Manalapan & Coran

This week, I got to enjoy two wonderful Kosher on a Budget LIVE events in Coran, Long Island and Manalapan, New Jersey.

Thank you so much to the Women’s Circle groups for sponsoring my visits. Rochel, Betsy, Tova & the “girls” – you were wonderful!

Based on your questions and comments, I have put together a list of resources to help you kick-start your money-saving journey.

We briefly talked about deal match-ups – where frugal bloggers like me tell you what’s on sale and what coupons to use to save even more. I encourage you to follow my kosher match-ups for Target, CVS, Walgreens, and Walmart.

I also suggest that you follow a local tri-state area deal blogger, who does the sale/coupon match-ups for all your local stores, such as Living Rich with Coupons.

The KOAB Coupon Database is your go-to resource for finding coupons to match-up with all your local sales. Whether you are looking to save money on mayo or margarine, just plug in the key words, press enter and quickly locate all the relevant coupons.

If you are new to deal-shopping at the drug stores, we didn’t get to cover this in depth – but they are a boon for the couponer. That’s how I get most of my toiletries and household cleaning supplies for pennies on the dollar. Read my CVS Tutorial and Walgreens Tutorial to learn more.

If you need help with menu planning ideas, which we covered rather quickly last night, you can find a helpful series of posts about Menu Planning here, including how I make monthly menu planning work for us.
